Hello lybrate-user. There are some very good exercises for the extra occular muscles. Like moving the eyeball to the opposite sides one by one. And then in round motion. Etc.
It helps.
Also start pranayama. Which helps to regular the body functions.
Also take homoeopathic treatment which specifically acts on nerves like spigelia, agaricus, nux vomica. But it has to match the case well.
You can consult me at Lybrate for homoeopathic treatment and other guidance for better results.

Amblyopia is commonly known as 'Lazy Eye'. It is a vision development disorder, which affects eyes and the brain during infancy and childhood. It signifies that the eye does not achieve a normal visual acuity even with refractive correction in form of glasses or contact lens. During normal visual development, the eye and brain learns to 'see' and develop binocularity, that is the ability to perceive depth (Stereoacuity). This occurs in the first 3 to 8 years of life.
